Explain how Cavalieri’s principle can be used to find the volume of any solid.

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Cavalier's principle can be used to find the volume of any solid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cavalier's Principle:

Cavalier introduced parallel planes and area to describe the relationship between solids.
Cavalier stated if two solids have the same height and equal areas of the base everywhere along the height then the solids have the same volume.

Suppose two regions are included between two parallel planes.
If every plane parallel to these two planes intersects both regions in cross-sections of equal area, then the two regions have equal volumes.
The formula for the volume of a prism is the area of the base times the height.

The two tables give the number of pints of red and blue paint that are used to make different amounts of two shades of purple pa

kirza4 [7]

The two highlighted rows show that for the same amount of blue, Purple #1 uses more red than Purple #2.

This means that Purple #1 is a redder shade of purple than Purple #2.

Purple #2 is a bluer shade of purple than Purple #1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two highlighted rows show that for the same amount of blue, Purple #1 uses more red than Purple #2.

Making blue's quantity as 3 parts for purple #1 implies red part becomes 1.5 to maintain the ratio 1:2
Purple #1 has 1/3 parts red and 2/3 parts blue. Purple #2 has 1/4th part red and 3/4th part blue.
Hence, Purple #1 is a redder shade of purple than Purple #2.
From the above explanation, Purple #2 is a bluer shade of purple than Purple #1.
